Sweet!.....I'm sitting down to watch it right now. (feelin' kinda naughty tho, waiting for "the knock" on the front door )I couldn't wait for it to be screened on tele....ya just gotta love the internet

Well redscorpio....what did you think?....without giving anything away of course wink

So much going on...Woo-Hoo smile

Didn't end up watching it last night. Had to finish Mad Men Season 3 before getting into this. Otherwise I'm trying to follow too many things at once and I still have Deadwood Seasons 2 and 3 to go plus a Danish crime thriller "The Killing". So much TV, so little time! However BH takes priority and I will watch it this week!

One piece of interesting casting: Robson Green plays a SPOILERcage fighter werewolf with a hatred of vampires- it was vampires who organised the cage fights in which he is forced to fight in. Which causes a quandary for our li'l trio- he likes the werewolf and the ghost, but really hates the vampire.SPOILER

Watched Ep 1 last night and it was great! Mitchell is still smouldering away (could give Richard Armitage a run for his money in the smouldering stakes!) and Robson Greene made an interesting addition to the cast. Looking forward to next week...

You're probably right! But there are times when RA is pretty hot. Sorry I know I'm being completely shallow! Not sure if it has been mentioned but Aidan Turner plays the young toy boy of Hattie Jaques in the BBC biopic "Hattie". Will keep a look out for that if the ABC decide to screen it.

Sorry, redscorpio, but AT is in another stratosphere, compared to RA....just my opinion though.

Yes, looking forward to seeing Aidan as Ruth's toyboy - could be a while till we see it here though....

Yes, Ep 2 was good as well. It introduces a character who will appear in an on-line spin off called Becoming Human.(Don't think that was a spoiler.) All in all Series 3 is great so far. I wonder if this will be the last as AT is heading off to NZ to be a dwarf or hobbitt or something.

I haven't seen it as yet I reckon that S3 will be the last of BH, maybe Becoming Human will take over & yes AT is playing the dwarf Kili in The Hobbit.....eeewww, hairy feet!

[quote]"have a feeling this could well be the last season of BH "[/quote]You know as much as I love this show, it really does have to end now before the plots become boring. Even supernaturals must eventually find their way "home" yeah?

[quote]"Should be perfect for him as I couldn't help noticing he is a pretty hirsute kind of guy.... "[/quote]

True Indy, him like animal! ........mmm very grrrr Tho going by the LOTR movies he ain't gonna be such a pretty boy.

Yes, guess you're right, faery.Better to go out on a high rather than drag on and descend into mediocrity - would be almost impossible for a show as good as BH to maintain its current high standard indefinitely.

[quote]"Aidan Turner as Hatty's toyboy:What do we think of the new hairdo?"[/quote]

OMG! I almost choked on my sandwich. Noooo!.....Faery is not at all happy with that hairdo I mean the guy is still absolutely gorgeous but I want those long locks back & he'd better keep the designer stubble happening as well

For those that are interested, BBC's Five Live podcast The Daily Bacon features an interview with Lenora Crichlow and Sinead Keenan from the Tuesday 8 Feb Richard Bacon show. The girls had a bit to say about the US version of Being Human among other things. Worth a listen!

Thanks for that redscorpio.Was most interesting - the girls are clearly not fans of the US version....for good reason it seems.Sounds absolutely ghastly, trying to appeal to the vacous American tweeny masses.(As I thought it would ).And trying to mimic the original so closely can only be a bad thing . How are they able to call such a blatant rip-off original?

Indy said [quote]"really not looking forward to reading the boring and sexist drools that have beschmirched this whole "discussion"[/quote]

Faery replied " [quote]"My only advice for you would be to ignore my philandrist drivel"[/quote]

Words of absolute wisdom my dear Faery.As a confirm hetro dude, even I think Aidan Turner is very cool.Damn it I wish I had a third of his pulling power, between him and John Barrowman I don't know who to be the most jealous of (what a predicament) !

Oh in case you were wondering, Yes I am feeling better, not 100% yet but I'm working on it.

[quote]"Desperate Romantics.......hubba hubba indeed At first I thought you wrote hubba bubba (bubble gum), my reaction was brought to you by the letters W T & F. "[/quote]

Is that stuff still around ?

AT was truly gorgeous as Rossetti in all his period frills and with all that foppish charm but his character did come across as pretty insincere and shallow - a real "ladykiller"who just wanted to get into those girlies' pants.I still prefer him as Mitchell - a much deeper and thoughful person, I think...

I did see your excellent words regarding the truly excellent drama titled "Being Human".I'm advised that Series 3 is soon to appear on the highly regarded ABC2 on 18 March, at 8.30pm. Well worth waiting for.

With regards to your praise of Aidan Turner's acting skills: I replied that Mitchell (Mr Turner's character in BH) would form part of an excellent trio comprising John Barrowman (Capt Jack Harkness in Torchwood) and Myself.

Or Words to that effect (do I have a witness brothers & sisters ?)
